  1. I’ve made this multiple times. I love that it can be made entirely with pantry items. Sometimes I use fresh onion and garlic instead of the onion flakes and garlic powder. However I’ve made it, we’ve always really enjoyed it.
     
  2. This is a terrific soup. I am not sure that it was intended to be a soup but I added enough V8 for it to be a hearty soup. I did have a couple of changes. I subbed pork and beans for the chili beans as that is what I had on hand. I added in 2 tblsp. of chili sauce to make up for the difference. My husband has a thing about cumin so left it out and decreased the chili powder due to using the chili sauce. I thought it needed a little colour so added in about 1/2 cup of frozen corn which turned out to be a nice addition. I topped the servings with sour cream. My son thought it was a bit spicy but ate his serving, my husband and I both thought it was great. I am surprised that there are not many more reviews for this super easy, fast, hearty and very tasty soup. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
     
  3. I put it in the crock pot for five hours on high. I used extra chili powder and spicy chili bean, but it still wasn't crazy hot. Roommies were anxiously waiting for me to get back to eat it after having smelled it all afternoon.
     
  4. 1 cup of cooked lentils
